What station were you at? Was it Honington? My brothers training there currently as a Gunner.

It is an interesting but little known fact that A E “George” Sims composed a march called “Per Ardua” as the regimental quick march (now completely forgotten), however the officers of the Regiment preferred “Holyrood” by Kenneth J Alford as his title referred to the first location that the RAF Regiment ever mounted guard.

My chest still puffs out when I hear that... Per Ardua.

Per Ardua Bo ;)

Probably one of the best Regimental marches👍

My grandfather was also RAF. He flew as a navigator in Wellingtons in Italy during the war. So glad that Bomber Command finally has a monument in London

i was in the raf fire service 1958 to63.we were amalgamated with raf regiment.

A specialist airfield defence Corps? Never heard it called that before.

Brings back fond memories

Brilliant!

You have no idea how long I've been looking for this piece

I love playing this as at times the Tombones and Bartione Horns (which I play) take the melody rather than the Cornets.

Through Adversity

I joined the RAF Fire Service 1955, and was thankful to the RAF regiment for good crash kit new vehicles and fire Officers non of which we really had before when we were taken over as a trade . Sadly they took our promotions as well . Spent many a great time at Catters Spike Lynch 22 year man

i started in raf fire service in 1959 which was absorbed into the regiment the same year,although we wore the shoulder flashes we did not train or work with the regiment but dropped down from trade group nine to group 22.which meant that we could remuster if we wished but as far as i know noboddy did but a lot of the men left the service outright.

Great march tune. A pity that the RAF used a tune written Kenneth Alford whilst director of Royal Marines musuc.

Correct

MY DAD SEVED KING/COUNTRY WW2 RCAF He had to march RCAF FY PAST

A beautiful march which, in my opinion, is far superior to the bland official march of the RAF. This should be the march of the RAF. A second good option would be "The Dambusters March"

I like the other one that faster

Cool, have a cookie.

Isn't their march "Those magnificent men in their flying machines?". Sorry, just couldn't help it. RAF Regiment, want to be a soldier, couldn't make the grade (and not allowed outside the fence)

Davie Coats 100% agree. We did a conversion of the RAF Regt to CVR(T), only to be told they could take on Soviet MBTs. As a MBT crewman I wouldn't want to take on enemy forces on an airfield. The RAF Regt have a horrible job, to protect their airfields against ground forces. As much as I extract the urine (take the piss) of any service, all of them have earned the right to be respected.
